Princess of whales: How a naked female scientist tries to tame belugas in the freezing Arctic
By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 10:00 AM on 16th June 2011

Braving sub-zero temperatures, she has thrown caution — and her clothes — to the wind to tame two beluga whales in a unique and controversial experiment.

Natalia Avseenko, 36, was persuaded to strip naked as marine experts believe belugas do not like to be touched by artificial materials such as diving suits.

The skilled Russian diver took the plunge as the water temperature hit minus 1.5 degrees Centigrade.

Ya gotta admire her ... gumption ...

I do not think one could last long in water that frigid...

Beautiful photo, though

There are more photos in the article.

At that temperature, I'm not sure how quick hypothermia takes to kick in, but I'm betting in under 5 minutes ...

Damn.  It's like Playboy.  I forgot to read the article, I was so busy looking at the pics ...

Ha! Yes, it answers the question.

The average human could die if left in sub-zero temperature sea water for just five minutes. However, Natalia is a yoga expert and used meditation techniques to hold her breath and stay under water for an incredible ten minutes and 40 seconds.

So she's diving naked with whales so she can tame them for transport to a dolphinarium? i'm not sure how noble that is.

They are considered an endangered species, as much as I dislike keeping animals in captivity, sometimes by doing so we can keep their biological material on planet earth, which in turn may save the species one day... zoos, marinas, and dolphanariums may become biological repositories one day

Okay, but when they get there is their water going to be at the near freezing temperature they're used to, and are there going to be lots of nice naked scientists to swim with them and make them feel comfortable? Because otherwise, i don't really see the point in what she's doing. What's her logic? Let's butter up the whales so the shock of what's really going to happen to them comes just a little bit later? What's the unpleasantness of a little "synthetic material" compared to what's to come? i guess i don't get it. i mean, she's a freak, but i don't see how she's helping the situation.

Are you sure she doesn't just want to get naked and swim with whales?

I'd love to get naked and swim with whales, just not in freaking ice water.

Would it be geeky if I said I had dreams about swimming with dolphins?

And how can anyone eat a balugas

Unless something horrible has happened very recently Belugas are not threatened or endangered.
